Did Star Trek: Picard FORGET The La Sirena Ship? - Star Trek Theory

Star Trek: Picard’s third and finale season may have brought back the U.S.S Enterprise-D for one last adventure; however, the series seems to have forgotten about its original heroship. This initially being the SS La Sirena, which appears in the first season, owned and operated by Captain Cristobal Rios, portrayed by actor Santiago Cabrera. Now, of course, the second season introduced the U.S.S Stargazer, under the command of Starfleet Captain Rios, meaning the La Sirena was passed to Seven of Nine.

Title: Did Star Trek: Picard FORGET The La Sirena Ship?
#StarTrekPicard #StarTrek #TrekCentral

[MacTX]

I just assumed La Sirena was left/parked somewhere. By season 3, it was basically a transport/shuttle.

[Jayjay-qeum]

They didn't FORGET La Serina, they just quietly left her out from the main storyline of season 3.

[lancaster]

I think La Sirena is basically Raphaella's home and is a metaphorical equivalent of her Trailer park home from season one.
But they didn't really bother using it much or at least not showing it in external establishing shots, they just showed the inside set mostly and very v ery rarely when the plot demanded it do you see the out side of it.

A Voyager style "cruising establishments shot" would have been useful at a few points, since the location interiors are so dark and the villain's ship uses part of the same internal set to know where you are would be nice.

Maybe they just used up a lot of budget on the Shrike.

[gm]

Have you considered they beamed the ship into the cargo bay as parts? That is why they needed to beam Worf and Raffi to the transporter room. When they want to use it again they will beam it back together. Flat pack Ikea ship.

[g.c.brooks]

I assumed they left the La Sirena parked in the Chin'Toka scrapyard to be retrieved at a later point. Since there are lots of wrecked starships there no one would probably bother it.

[davidblalock]

With all the high functioning AI onboard the La Sirena, I don’t see why the compute couldn’t just pilot it back to a home port for storage.

[TheCNYMike]

I think you covered it: They filmed Word and Raffi on La Sirena and then struck the set before they moved into the bulk of season 3.

WRT "Forgetting" other things: While there is no way the writers could have responded to the reaction to season 2, if there was enough online hate for season 1, they learned that getting rid of the S1 characters, or most of them, would be a priority for seasons 2 and 3. Hence Agnes and Rios are written out in Season 2, and Laris only appears in S3 episode 1, which was also probably filmed during the S2 block. Raffi is the only "new" character who hasn't been killed off, and even then, she's stopped calling Picard JL because fans hated that. She will probably be killed off in the first season of "Legacy, " when we will learn that Elnor died when the Excelsior was destroyed on Frontier Day, Matalas' statement to the contrary notwithstanding.

Moral: Be careful what you wish for from Hollywood...and don't whine about it when you get it.

[KEVMAN]

I don't doubt the LA Sirena cold fit in the shuttlebay. They were able to fit shuttles, the Delta Flyer, and Neelix' shuttle into Voyager after all.

[sprroach]

The LaSirena could be maintaining orbit around some planet awaiting Raffi's return.

[ultramaximusreviews]

It was left behind when they were on the Titan. Maybe it was left in orbit of that star & Worf went back afterward and got it for his adventures.

[johnedwarddanila]

My theory is that La Serreina can fold herself or they made a special dock for her to morph to the Titan. If what they say is true that La Serreina is stored somewhere in Titan. But the ship is one vital part of the show where is it?

[richardjohnson]

The strange thing is the La Sirena still existing at all. At the end of Season 2, Jurati took off with it while still in the 21st century. She didn't use it to travel back to her own time, instead building her new version of the Borg and preparing for her eventual encounter with the Stargazer. Did she keep the La Sirena somewhere for 400 years and give it back, or is Raffi simply using a another ship of the same design?

[joecostantino]

The La Sirena is larger then a Danube class Runabout, now I can buy it fitting inside the Enterprise D's main shuttle bay that thing is huge but not the Titan A/Enterprise G. This ship seems to pass from person to person so maybe Worf has it now or Picard does. Maybe if they ever make Star Trek Legacy we'll see it parked at the Vineyard lol.

[undercoversoviet]

The fact they just swooped the enterprise f like not even doing it justice

[Rhinoskin]

It was forgotten like the 1st two seasions

[darthdragonborn]

Its not really canon, but id take a wager and say worf now commands la sirena. Since its still going places. Plus 7 of 9's first officer would of given it to her friend considering she was taking the role of first officer aboard the enterprise

[mikewaterfield]

One can hope, that thing was ugly and stupid! Its like a Star Citizen ship that got lost.

[sheajones]

It is difficult to say whether if a small ship like that could have been able to fit into a shuttle hangar bay in the USS Titan

[dyslexictreki]

I would respect the writers more if they just admitted the writers forgot the La Sirena. I could see them saying it's in a close orbit to the star they were at and was retrieved later. It's not perfect, but makes some sense. I could also see them using it to send a dummy signal to help distract Star Fleet. The fact that it wouldn't work doesn't hurt the story because they don't realize that at the time. But the fact is, the writers are put under a stupid amount of pressure and have practically no time to write these scripts, and yes I'm talking about the writer's strike now. I'd rather them forget the ship than a whole ass person.

[adamsears]

Doubt CPT Shaw (I think his name was) would allow it on his Titan. He was strictly by the book at the beginning of season 3. I believe it would be only Starfleet equipment on board
